Technology and society

Technology and Humans Technology- defined in more ways than any one human could possibly know. Technology can range from the ancient tools of early man to the complex networks of machinery that congest today?s world. Society has slowly been evolving and developing the devices we use to survive and prosper for many millennia. New inventions are shaping the world in which we live by making tasks easier. These new advances could also be seen as harmful with many large and small drawbacks. Technology is nothing new to humans and has in fact been employed for centuries. As it evolves continually every day and continues to play such a pivotal role in our lives, how has technology worked together with humans in the past and into the future? HUMAN HISTORY
